The First Book of Kings - Introduction & Chapters 1 thorugh 2

There are three sets of double-books in the Old Testament:
  • 1st & 2nd Samuel
  • 1st & 2nd Kings
  • 1st & Chronicles

In the original Hebrew writings, these were all single books....one for Samuel, one for Kings and one for Chronicles.  When the Old Testament was translated from Hebrew into the Greek - the Septuagint - in 285-270 BC, those translators made the divisions of these books, supposedly for the convenience of the reader.
